Do you believe that it was the right thing to do? Do you think that you will enjoy living on the reservation? Do you want to live in the nastiest places in the country on land no one else wants? What if Americans did come here illegally? So what, get a real argument, it is all ancient history. We are here now and the problem is presented to us every minute of every day we will not stand by in silence and give our consent for criminals to take what is ours.
Arrest the criminals and do something constructive with them like build a fence then send their asses to the end of the line!
Hoka hey!!!!!

They get it wrong when they say American was founded on immigrants. They don't realize that was LEGAL immigrants.
I watched a PBS documentary about immigrants in the 1950s. It even had old black and white footage. They put them through hell. It was not an easy task. And if you didn't pass a physical you got put on the return boat with no argument.

There's no way to decide wether the founding pilgrims were legal or not, as there was no INS back in the day. They just immigrated, and that's that.
However, the resulting treatment of the native Americans was a foul injustice.

Being illegal is not a crime, it is a civil offense!!
Why don't you go after their emloyers, that is a crime!!
Texas Co. Hired Illegals to Make MREs
McALLEN, Texas, Oct. 28, 2005
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(AP) A Texas employment agency was sentenced to five years of probation for hiring illegal immigrants to work at the nation's top producer of military battlefield rations, federal prosecutors said Thursday.
The Tollin Group was also fined $20,000 and ordered to pay $414,000 in civil penalties Wednesday. It has been barred from Department of Defense contracts for three years.
The San Antonio-based company, which does business as Remedy Intelligent Staffing, pleaded guilty in January to hiring illegal immigrants and trying to cover it up by falsifying employment eligibility forms. The workers were hired for Wornick Co., which makes MREs _ or "meals ready-to-eat."
The investigation was initiated in February 2003 after an al-Qaida operative was arrested with information pointing to McAllen and Wornick as terrorist targets. Wornick had been awarded a $47 million contract to produce more than 1.1 million MREs for U.S. forces in Iraq.
The FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force ran background checks on Wornick employees and found hundreds of temporary employees with fraudulent documentation.
No direct link to terrorism was found.

as far as i'm concerned, most of the founding fathers of the US were illegal aliens, you certainly don't concider them criminals do you?
they came here and invaded the native american's life and land, i think thats a crime.. but they were good people weren't they?
and thats bs when you say that its all ancient history, american laws and ideas are based from history so you get it clear and make a good point.
